Why is my guy friend acting so strange. Are we hanging out or is this a date?

So me and my guy friend are in our mid 20s. We’ve know each other for over a year but he’s been acting kinda strange since I’ve know him. I want to say he doesn’t like me because I think if he did he would have asked me out by now but I’m not sure!

We have a friendship group but we hangout outside of it most times. I once asked to borrow his Netflix password and he suggested that we watch the movie together instead because he wanted to watch it too. He came over and we watched it on my bed but nothing happened it was just awkward. This happened like three more times.

We also agreed to go to a concert together. He came over after work, he texted me to ask if I was hungry and bought me pizza on his way over, we ate it together. At the concert he asked if I wanted a drink at the bar and he paid for it. It kinda felt like a date so I asked him like months later over text if it was a date but he said no it wasn’t. I thought we would joke about it but he was just kind of very serious in his reply and hasn’t brought it up since.

Even till now, he’ll do little things for me like proof read my essays before I send it off and just stuff that would seem inconvenient but he doesn’t mind.

guys help 😭 I really like him and I suspect he knows but am I overthinking this or is he just a friendly guy?
